If you are under the age of 18, you may not register as a seller on our platform. Stayhit reserves the right to terminate your registration and deny access to the platform if we discover that you are under the age of 18. If you are registering as a business entity, you must have the proper authority to accept our Vendor Policy on behalf of the business entity.

Seller Account Deactivation

If a seller requests the closure of their account, we will place the account on hold for 90 days to facilitate the closure of any pending transactions. During this period, the seller can download payment and taxation reports, if necessary. After 90 days, the seller must confirm the download of reports and request account deactivation again. Once we receive this confirmation and verify there are no outstanding payments, we will deactivate the seller’s account. Certain information, such as the registered mobile number, registered email ID, GSTIN, and transaction-related information, will be retained for auditing and fraud prevention purposes. If a seller wishes to resume business with Stayhit, they may not create a new account, but their older account can be restored if required.
